Gypsophila paniculata seedlings potted, need to be placed in the shade of good ventilation, until it adapts to the environment before normal maintenance. During the seedling period, nitrogen fertilizer can be applied, and the exposure time can be gradually increased, but it can not be exposed to strong light, and the flower soil should be kept moist. During the seedling period, if too much water, lack of sunshine or seedlings grow too closely, they are prone to lodging.
Mimosa, also known as sensitive grass and shy grass, is a perennial herbaceous plant of Leguminosae, native to tropical areas of the Americas, generally found in shrubs.There are usually more than a dozen pairs of symmetrically distributed leaves on its leaf stems, which look like a feather in appearance and are emerald green in color.It will also blossom, but the flowers are smaller, white and pink in color, which has a better ornamental effect.
1. The Secret of Mimosa
There is an organ called "pulvinus" at the bottom of the petiole of Mimosa pudica, which contains relatively rich parenchyma cells. These cells are very sensitive. As long as they are stimulated by the outside world, the cell fluid inside the cell will flow to other places, thus reducing the expansion of the cell.This makes the cells of the pulvinus less stressed, allowing the leaves to appear closed, which is what the outside world sees when the leaves of Mimosa are touched and automatically closed.
Because of this "secret" of Mimosa, its leaves have a good role in predicting weather and earthquakes.Because the leaves of Mimosa usually open in sunny days and daytime, and close at night and rainy days.If its leaves close slowly and open quickly after stimulation, it may turn cloudy or rain.If it closes quickly and then opens slowly, the weather is about to clear up.And if it suddenly opens its leaves at night or closes them during the day, there may be an earthquake coming soon.
